// Helper class to access FAST_ and SLOW_SLOPPY_ARGUMENTS_ELEMENTS, dividing
// arguments into two types for a given SloppyArgumentsElements object:
// mapped and unmapped.
//
// For clarity SloppyArgumentsElements fields are qualified with "elements."
// below.
//
// Mapped arguments are actual arguments. Unmapped arguments are values added
// to the arguments object after it was created for the call. Mapped arguments
// are stored in the context at indexes given by elements.mapped_entries[key].
// Unmapped arguments are stored as regular indexed properties in the arguments
// array which can be accessed from elements.arguments.
//
// elements.length is min(number_of_actual_arguments,
// number_of_formal_arguments) for a concrete call to a function.
//
// Once a SloppyArgumentsElements is generated, lookup of an argument with index
// |key| in |elements| works as follows:
//
// If key >= elements.length then attempt to look in the unmapped arguments
// array and return the value at key, missing to the runtime if the unmapped
// arguments array is not a fixed array or if key >= elements.arguments.length.
//
// Otherwise, t = elements.mapped_entries[key]. If t is the hole, then the
// entry has been deleted from the arguments object, and value is looked up in
// the unmapped arguments array, as described above. Otherwise, t is a Smi
// index into the context array specified at elements.context, and the return
// value is elements.context[t].

// corresponding unmapped arguments FixedArray:
